Blackberry database.Open crashes app

Using the latest titanium and BB NDK i have been getting to grips with mobile development accross iOS, Android and Blackberry. I have been going through the Ti bounty hunter labs after the video tutorials and have got stuck after working with local data. The issue is, i have implemented the database as shown below, this works fine in iOS and Andoroid but crashes the app on the Blackberry Simulator, I can't run on a device as I get a syntax error in the token...

database.js

var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
db.execute('Create TABLE IF NOT EXISTS fugitives(id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, name TEXT, captured INTEGER)');
db.close ();
 
function List(captured){
    var data = [];
     var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
     var bountyData = db.execute('Select * from fugitives where captured = ? ORDER BY NAME ASC',captured);
    while (bountyData.isValidRow())
    {
        data.push({ID: bountyData.fieldByName('id'),
        Name: bountyData.fieldByName('name'),
            hasChild:true,
            color: '#fff',
            captured: (Number(bountyData.fieldByName('captured')) == 1),
            title:bountyData.fieldByName('name')
         });
        bountyData.next();
    }
    bountyData.close();
     db.close();
    return data;
}
exports.list = List;
 
function Add(name,captured){
    var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
        db.execute('INSERT INTO fugitives(name,captured) values (?,?)',name,captured);
        db.close();
        Ti.App.fireEvent('fugitivesUpdated');
}
exports.Add = Add;
 
function Delete(ID){
    var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
        db.execute('DELETE from fugitives where id = ?',ID);  
        db.close();
  Ti.App.fireEvent('fugitivesUpdated');
}
exports.Delete = Delete;
 
function Bust(ID){
    var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
        db.execute('Update fugitives set captured = 1 where id = ?',ID);  
        db.close();
          Ti.App.fireEvent('fugitivesUpdated');
}
 
exports.Bust = Bust;

fugitives.js (loads on start up) called form tab group

function FugitiveWindow() {
 
    var self = Ti.UI.createWindow({
        title:'fugitives',
        backgroundColor:'#6d0a0c'
    });
 
    var BountyTable = require('ui/common/BountyTable');
    var bountyTable = new BountyTable(0);
self.enableDatabase(true);
 
    bountyTable.addEventListener('click', function(_e) {
        var DetailWindow = require('ui/common/DetailWindow');
        self.containingTab.open(new DetailWindow(_e.rowData, self.containingTab));
    });
 
    self.add(bountyTable);
 
    if(Ti.Platform.osname =='iphone' || Ti.Platform.osname =='blackberry')
        {
        var button = Ti.UI.createButton({title:L('Add')});
        button.addEventListener('click', function(e)
        {
         var addwindow = require('ui/common/AddFugitive');
         self.containingTab.open(new addwindow());   
        });
 
        self.setRightNavButton(button);
 
        }
 
 
    return self;
};
 
module.exports = FugitiveWindow;

bountytable.js

var BountytableView =  function (captured){
    // Create a TableView.
    var aTableView = Ti.UI.createTableView({
    backgroundColor:'transparent'
    });
 
    // Populate the TableView data.
 
    function populatedata(){
        var database = require('lib/database');
    var data = database.list(captured);
 
    aTableView.setData(data);
    }
    populatedata();
    // Add to the parent view.
 
    Ti.App.addEventListener('fugitivesUpdated',function(e)
    {
     populatedata();        
    });
 
    return aTableView;
 
};
 
module.exports = BountytableView;

in database.js if I comment out the database code as below it runs

function List(captured){
    var data = [];
    // var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter');
   //  var bountyData = db.execute('Select * from fugitives where captured = ? ORDER BY NAME ASC',captured);
   // while (bountyData.isValidRow())
   // {
   //     data.push({ID: bountyData.fieldByName('id'),
    //    Name: bountyData.fieldByName('name'),
    //        hasChild:true,
    //        color: '#fff',
    //        captured: (Number(bountyData.fieldByName('captured')) == 1),
    //        title:bountyData.fieldByName('name')
     //    });
    //    bountyData.next();
   // }
  //  bountyData.close();
    // db.close();
    return data;
}
exports.list = List;

but if i just un comment this line var db = Ti.Database.open('BountyHunter'); It crashes on BB again. Any help appreciated
